Alex 35120 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 It's no good when you do these lists when a decade's just ended but it's probably long enough ago to appraise the decade properly now. Not sure I agree with the list or the order. I own a lot of them and even think some of them are a bit naff. http://pitchfork.com/features/staff-lists/5923-top-100-albums-of-the-1990s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajax_andy 0 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Aye I've not listened to half of them in the top 10 tbh... OK Computer and Nevermind are my 2 favourite albums of all time though so at least they are in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Got 5 of the top ten Rate 4 of them. Never got hooked by Neutral Milk Hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 How many Bjork ones ffs. Look at me, I'm a wierdo from Iceland, I can make squeaky voices and I've got no tits. Pipe down. One of the wankest most yank centric lists I've ever seen. Utter load of wank, our music pisses on their's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 From a personal point of view, great to see Air's Moon Safari and Cocteau Twin's Heaven or Las Vegas in there. Fucking love those two albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a better list which I'll add later I quite like Bjork though. Classic case of doing a really good debut and never living up to it though imo.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I also quite like Bjork..but I think Debut (which isn't in the top 100) is better than both Post and Homogenic. So there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 My no.1 album of all time is no.2 in that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Someone once told me that when she was in the Sugarcubes she used to take a shit on stage during a gig. I may have dreamt that like.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Dummy, Moon Safari and Heaven or Las Vegas still get played at Parky Castle. Maxinquaye is an album everybody told me to buy for 2 decades. No dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have dreamt that like.. and she's been shit on stage ever since. Saw here on a programme about curries once and she was ensconed in the only curry house in rejkavic warbling about chikken korma or summink...

Tooj is very big on the Cocteau Twins. Really like some of Guthrie's later ambient/dreamy stuff. Good to write to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4389 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Haven't read the full list but it looks like the usual combo of journos obscurities and the more obvious suspects. Siamese Dream would probably be top for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Whitehurst 898 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 No Leftism and no Dubnobasswithmyheadman? My two favourite albums of the 90s and also both accessible enough to be included on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonGoodwyn 1 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Some class stuff in there, most of it isn't really my thing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 71 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 yeah that's about the same for me, pavement, radiohead, flaming lips, dj shadow nirvana maybe 1-2 more. Surprised doolittle didn't make the top 10 easily as well (although it might have been late 80's come to think of it) Soft Bulletin is a great shout though, love that album particularly race for the prize and a spoonful weighs a ton Flaming lips is popular with lesbians apparently.
